St Harmonica's Blues Club: Leavin' Trunk

Friday 10 February 2023 8.30pm

The Southgate Club, 17 Chase Side, N14 5BP (Entrance is in Crown Lane)

202302 leavin trunk

You could almost call Leavin' Trunk an Essex/Suffolk blues supergroup with the coming together of two long standing pillars of the UK Blues scene; charismatic frontman Tim Aves (Wolfpack, Automatic Slim and the Rockin’ Armadillos) and veteran East Anglian drummer John Butters (Blues Situation, Groove Doctors, Mean Red Spiders). They are joined by bassman Rob ’Tank’ Barry, guitarist Craig Fillbrook and keyboard player Adam Whyatt. Their debut at the club last year was sensational with great material performed superbly.

Two things define the music of Leavin’ Trunk: a powerful, funky groove, infused with a scintilla of New Orleans gumbo; and some great tunes - band originals and re-interpretations of classics from various obscure corners of the blues and soul catalogue. We defy you NOT to dance to this band!

Support comes in the form of the superb side guitar playing and vocals of St Harmonica's regular, Dave 'Mad Dog' Barnes.

Live music starts at 8.30pm and admission is free to card holding St Harmonica’s Blues Club Members (membership costs just £10 for the year) otherwise £10 on the door. The hat is passed around to pay for the musicians.
